If you want to manipulate memory directly - which is risky though sometimes useful - C is one of the best languages in which to do it. Memory addresses are numbers, and C will let you work with those numbers in whatever way you want: add, subtract, multiply, divide... and if you didn't shudder at the suggestion of dividing a pointer because there are very, very few reasons to do so then C is not the language for you!
If you don't want to manipulate memory directly, you probably shouldn't be using C; stick with a nice garbage-collected, type-safe, object-oriented, cross-platform language. If you do want to manipulate memory directly, but you want more guarantees on what you can do with pointers, try Rust.

/Also, gross.
Digraphs and trigraphs are treated differently. <% and %> are fine on GGC and Clang, but ??< and ??> are disabled by default. Both need the -trigraphs option.
"The array subscripting operation is defined so that E1[E2] is identical to *(E1+E2). Therefore, despite its asymmetrical appearance, subscripting is a commutative operation."
(my emphasis)
int i;main(){for(;i["]<i;++i){--i;}"];read('-'-'-',i+++"hell\
o, world!\n",'/'/'/'));}read(j,i,p){write(j/p+p,i---j,i/i);} int i;
int main(){
for(
;
i["]<i;++i){--i;}"]; // loop until i == 14? (the NUL byte on the end)
read('-'-'-',i+++"hello, world!\n",'/'/'/') // read(0, <one byte of "hello, world!\n" at a time>, 1)
) {};
}
int read(j,i,p){
write(j/p+p,i---j,i/i); // write(0/1+1, i-- - 0, 1) --> write(1, i, 1) --> write a byte to STDOUT
}
Yeah. That's why people don't do things in C. It's more like most C programmers probably weren't aware of this. After your comment, we'll start to see C codebases everywhere with that.
